WOLVES ARE JUST BIG DOGS

Crossfire just aired the new Republican "wolves" ad, and as it ended you could hear the audience laughing. Substitute right-wing host Joe Watkins was aghast because he thought it was powerful! Paul Begala just broke up and kept yelling, "Puppies, Joe! They were puppies! Oooooooo!"

That's EXACTLY the right reaction, mockery. And in fact, the wolves DO look pretty cute. Our youngest daughter used to collect stuffed wolves when she was a young'un, so we tend to view them benignly.

My Liberal Identity:

You are a Peace Patroller, also known as an anti-war liberal or hippie. You believe in putting an end to American imperial conquest, stopping wars that have already been lost, and supporting our troops by bringing them home.
